NO.   I— SOLICITOR. 

Bay  Stallion,  (3  Vol.  Wal.  Reg.)  foaled  March  21st, 
1873.  Bred  by  A.  J.  Alexander,  Woodburn  Farm,  Ky. 
He  is  15  hands  3  inches  high,  is  well  broken,  of  excellent 
disposition,  and  a  very  promising  sire.  He  had  five  colts 
foaled  in  1877,  and  they  are  all  creditable  to  him  as  a 
stock  horse.  His  dam,  Blandina,  is  becoming  a  famous 
brood  mare,  being  the  dam  of  Swigert,  owned  by  Richard 
Richards,  Racine,  Wis.,  and  of  Bowman's  Abdallah  Pilot, 
the  sire  of  the  famous  three  year  old  Red  Jim.  She  is  also 
the  dam  of  Giggler,  Barcena,  and  of  King  Rene.  Blan- 
dina's  dam,  the  Burch  mare,  is  also  distinguished  as  the 
dam  of  Rosalind.  The  pedigree  of  Belmont  and  the  per- 
formance of  his  colts  entitle  him  to  rank  with  the  best  sons 
of  Alexander's  Abdallah,  himself  the  best  son  of  Rysdyk's 
Hambletonian.  Solicitor  is  a  handsome  horse,  and  a 
stylish  driver.  He  is  level-headed,  and  a  square,  open- 
gaited  trotter.  He  has  never  been  driven  for  great  speed, 
but  is  developing  as  rapidly  as  should  be  desired.  At  four 
years  old  he  could  trot  his  mile  in  2-45.  His  extended 
pedigree   is  given  upon  the  opposite  page. 

Terms    $50.00,    payable    at  service,    with    privilege    to 
breed  back  free  if  the  mare  proves  not  to  be  in  foal.
